At the posh Hilaya restaurant of NUWA Hotel City of Dreams in Paranaque City, two huge corporations LM Make Up and Skin Care (a subsidiary of Chrizmarie Builders and Construction Supply from the Philippines) and VEGA Natural Thailand finally signed their partnership agreement to produce skincare products designed for the Filipino consumer this 2025.
The event was graced by Madam Lyn Macanas, the is the CEO of Chrizmarie Builders and Construction Supply and LM Make Up and Skincare Corp, Mr. Phrathonmsak Techavetcharoen and Madam Kwan Wannathong the President and CEO respectively of VEGA Natural Thailand.
Ms. Lyn says "I used to walk 9 kilometers to go to school, I also work in the farm, tend to animals, but I needed to do it to survive. Because I didn't have a mother, I was given to strangers, and try to still study even if abuse was there. I had to work hard in Samar, just to have lunch, I used to get fruits from a tree. Then I told myself, time will come that I will succeed. Then I went to college by riding trucks, had to be with other folks and sell cookware, so I can have money for my tuition fees. I got to finish college, and I thought it was going to be okay after that. I went abroad as an OFW, still struggled, I think I only succeeded when I started as a liaison officer in a construction company. I had to learn the ropes, Madam Lyn only wished to survive, after having a successful construction company, and now we are venturing into cosmetics. This is something that I wanted because I have daughters, you can achieve this by focusing, praying for it, and I think everything will fall into place. What keeps me inspired is the hardships that I went through, I had to do it for my family. I only dreamed of this, and she comes from a very humble beginnings too (referring to Madam Kwan), she used to sell fish balls in streets of Bangkok, and I was touched knowing that we both came from very humble beginnings. All organic, skincare utilizing French and Spanish technology will now be within reach for the Philippines and the region."
Madam Kwan the CEO of Vega Cosmetics says "I lived on a dream, I thought of how to make it come true. I built my business in manufacturing cosmetics, and partner with clients to work with them along the way. In the beginning we talked in Thailand and I could feel how strong her energy was. She went to our factory and saw how she took care of the people around her, same with what we have in Thailand. It touched my heart seeing that, and when we talked, I felt she was so good inside and out. It's the opportunity that we are also waiting for, and our families met, we could feel how they took care of us, working together, we will bring the best products here and elsewhere in the world. We will succeed together!"
Here's the press conference in its entirety:
Their families also joined them in celebration of this feat. They were seated on tables nearby and was very vocal about supporting each other.
Madam Kwan and Madam Lyn only met over dinner and this happened. This is fate, and we can't wait to see them succeed even further. Their individual stories were certainly so inspiring, and their pursuit for something deeper, more significant to do, because they are the ones who did the hard work, they deserve it. Here's hoping even more people get to hear and learn about their stories, and become successful like them too.
Cheers to two successful women and their meaningful relationships!
